Alexander Anthony Clever, who pleaded no contest to a first-degree murder charge in July, will not be eligible for parole, the DA’s office said in a news release.
In addition to the no contest plea, the defendant also admitted to special circumstance allegations of torture and mayhem, prosecutors said.
Clever went to a motel — identified by police at the time as the Motel 6 at 2470 S. Garey Ave. in Pomona — on Nov. 29, 2014, with his girlfriend, Yvette Silva, and two others.
At some point, he went into the bathroom with Silva and the pair argued, according to Deputy DA Michael Matoba, who prosecuted the case.
The couple’s companions tried to intervene after hearing muffled screams. When they went into the bathroom, they observed the defendant holding Silva, who was unconscious, in a chokehold, the release stated.

Police responded to the scene and discovered Silva deceased in the shower; her heart and right lung had been removed from her body, according to the release.
Silva was still alive when the lung was cut out from her body, according to Matoba.

Maybe left there by the maintenance crew. They have to install a new set of gaskets every time it's used; I read somewhere that there is only one manufacturer that can make them; each set is used only once, and costs around $20K.
Also notice the explosion-proof luminaire (lighting fixture) in the upper left of the chamber. Hydrocyanic acid gas is flammable, with a heat of enthalpy of -427 kJ mol−1; about 1/2 that of natural gas.
“She paid for that thing”
I call bs!
The corrupt Clinton slush fund pays for the ugliest outfits on the planet!
Who could possibly pick out her clothes?
I don’t believe that figure.
“Facts” are thrown around like peanuts these days.

I do most of my surgeries at Motel 6. The hospitals charge too much for operating rooms.
omg.....
Since the “Foundation” money is THEIRS, that is a distinction without a difference.
Nice. My favorite artist.
I was expecting a lot of facial tats.
Believe me I looked, for both of them. Perhaps you can find one.
While I can't justify torturing the criminal to death, the death penalty NEEDS to be reinstated.
And used far more often.
For all the whining about the *rights* of the murders to not having cruel and unusual punishment, they are doing a disservice to those who the criminals did inflict cruel and unusual punishment on.
Their victims were robbed of their right to live. They didn't have any say in it.
The murderer/torturer has forfeited his right at that point.
Not to disrespect any of my CA FR friends, but as soon after I read the headline, I immediately thought California.
So when I opened the article, sho’ ‘nuff whoops there it is: ktla in so cal.
The 8th Amendment reminds us that we’re the good guys, and we don’t torture people to death even if they deserve it.
Much as I might want (being the fallen sinner that I am) to inflict some clever and exceptionally painful death on this fellow, torturing people to death is inhuman and unGodly. It shows a callous disrespect for God's creation of human life. It attempts to usurp God's position as the ultimate arbiter of justice. It appeals to our basest instinct.
Respect for human life does, IMO, demand the ultimate penalty of death for some crimes. It also demands that the penalty be carried out efficiently, and without gratuitous infliction of pain. Torture is bad for the torturer's soul.
I do agree.
